Oh fuck off. They were protesting environmental legislation that hurt regular working class people that contribute less than 1% to global warming. While the same government fucks were giving tax breaks to corporations and billionaires that contribute 99%. "THIS DOESN'T SEEM SAFE" ๐๐๐๐ Are you an American? I wouldn't be surprised you pro-pedophiles would be put off by revolutionary action.
Huh? I was being funny with the "safe" comment. Also, they weren't protesting tax breaks for billionaires, we're they? They were protesting environmental legislation.
I do sympathize with this moment, however.
They were protesting environmental legislation targeting the working class. It wasn't targeting the true polluters and it sure as hell wasn't going to curb climate change. The government tried to use the excuse of climate change as a way to tax the working class more. Let's be clear the neoliberal French government would never pass true environmental legislation because it would threaten business and elite interests!
Most Americans aren't pro pedo. They're just uninformed as shit. You would be too if you lived there.
